11.Proposed revisions to Recommendation M.1370
SETTING-UP AND LINING-UP OF INTERNATIONAL DATA TRANSMISSION SYSTEMS
OPERATING IN THE RANGE 48 kbit/s TO 64 kbit/s
Insert a new 2.5 as follows:
"2.5 Designations of data transmission systems can be found in
Recommendation M.140:
- for use between administrations: in section 11;
- for use as digital leased circuits: in section 3.2.15.
When a data transmission system is given its designation, and also the
related information also has to be established according to
Recommendation M.140, section 12. The various items are show in an annex to this Recommendation."
Replace the text after the first three sentences of section 4.3.2 with
the following (i.e. after "convenient" ...):
"... Where the international section includes a satellite link, then it
may be possible to perform long RF loop measurements,
including the satellite, if such measurements are allowed by
the satellite transponder configuration, i.e., if the earth
station can monitor its own transmission. Such measurements,
made in loop from the customer premises, the TIC or from
the earth station, should be kept for reference purposes.
Loop measurements must be additional to the unidirectional
measurements and should not be substituted for, or compared
directly with, the end-to-end measurements."
Replace the whole of section 4.3.7 with the following:
"It may be necessary to switch in the FEC to meet the international
section and the end-to-end limits specified in Tables 1/M.1370 to 4/M.1370,
but during initial line-up it is desirable to obtain a measure of data
transmission performance with the FEC facility switched both in and out. However,
due to modem design, it may not always be possible to obtain measurements with
the FEC disabled. In other cases it may be necessary to artificially degrade
the link to obtain a measure of the difference in link performance with FEC
switched in and out. Measurements and measurement methods, should be retained
as benchmarks for subsequent comparisons with results obtained during
maintenance."
Add the following new annex to the Recommendation:
"ANNEX
(to Recommendation M.1370)
DESIGNATION INFORMATION ON INTERNATIONAL DATA TRANSMISSION SYSTEMS
Designation:
The designation is according to Recommendation M.140, section 11, for use between administrations) or section 3.2.15 (for private use).
Related information:
RI/1 Urgency for restoration;
RI/2 Terminal countries;
RI/3 Carriers' name
RI/4 Control and sub-control station(s);
